Journal ArticleDOI

Machado-Joseph disease gene products carrying different carboxyl termini.

TL;DR: Three cDNA clones for the Machado-Joseph disease gene (MJD1) were isolated and genetic analysis results suggest that Japanese MJD mutations are associated with allele A, which is similar to the previously published one.
Journal ArticleDOI

The genomic structure and expression of MJD, the Machado-Joseph disease gene

TL;DR: Northern blot analysis showed that MJD mRNA is ubiquitously expressed in human tissues, and in at least four different sizes, which indicates that there are three alternative splicing sites and eight polyadenylation signals in MJD that are used to generate the differently sized transcripts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of shared risk loci and pathways for bipolar disorder and schizophrenia

Andreas J. Forstner, +83 more

TL;DR: Investigating whether SCZ-associated SNPs also contribute to BD development through the performance of association testing in a large BD GWAS dataset provided further insights into shared risk loci and disease-associated pathways for BD and SCZ.
Journal ArticleDOI

Restless legs syndrome‐associated MEIS1 risk variant influences iron homeostasis

TL;DR: It is shown that RNA interference treatment of the MEIS1 worm orthologue increases ferritin expression in Caenorhabditis elegans and that the RLS‐associated haplotype leads to increased expression offerritin and DMT1 in RLS brain tissues.
